Hi guys, day three in Italy and It’s been lovely. FINALLY had a lie in, a walk this morning and breakfast and then a walk around the local town. Back to the hotel for check ins and then spent the rest of the afternoon at the beach with the girls. Then out for dinner and enjoyed a nice pizza

Hi Alfie, that sounds intense and quite sudden. Seeing as you’ve never experienced this and it came on so suddenly, I feel you’re doing the right thing by resting, hydrating and eating well. Approach your next session with caution. Try and be very aware and intentional with what movements you’re doing and how you’re feeling. I hope it doesn’t happen again! If it does, perhaps consider speaking to your doctor. They can then help out rule any issues like blood sugar, blood pressure, fainting episodes or whatever else it could be! You MIGHT however be totally fine with zero issues! Fingers crossed your next session goes well.

Hi guys, super busy day up early and off to see my chiro in Essex, got stuck in traffic and ended up only getting back by 3pm. Kill me. Popped by to see my parents quick and then back home to actually get some work done. I’ll be in Italy for the rest of the week tackling check ins as well as spending time with my partner and family. No training till Saturday and I’ll be enjoying some foods but not being an idiot

Make sure you’re hitting your overall protein goal. If you find that after adjusting your fats (from egg yolks) your overall protein is low, then yes, you need to make up for it. You can make up for it with egg whites or any other protein of choice.

Hiya Naoise, cable crunches are great, most ‘crunch’ movements be it on machines, bodyweight or cables are great for developing your abdominal wall. I do totally agree with Marc here too. Make sure you’re also doing some of the above movements he mentioned. Super helpful with control and bracing. They also help with awareness of your pelvis and ribs.
I’d also suggest leg raises or hanging leg raises. I really enjoy them

Hi guys happy Saturday. Final night with the doggy and I’m sad. I’ve really liked his company. Up for a walk this morning, check ins and then in for my final session hams and glutes. Good session! Back home to continue for the day then out this evening briefly to see some classic cars. Bathed the dog, he got crazy zoomies and now we’re all ready for bed

Hi guys happy Friday. Up for a walk with the dog, check ins and breakfast and then in for legs. A VERY rushed session as I was off to a concert this evening and for the train times wrong. I needed to be leaving an hour earlier than expected. My fault totally. A good session on the whole! Just very quick, managed to get almost everything done. This evening i went to Gunnersbury park and saw Palace. Super chill vibes and they were amazing. They were actually a supporting act for Kruangbin who were amazing too. On the train back now and I’m pretty tired

Hiya John, it’s person dependant. Depending on recovery and digestion some people prefer to have protein sit higher or even on the lower end. It could be beneficial or disadvantageous.

I think calling yourself stupid is harsh! I think listening to your body and not pushing through just to feel as if you’re ’sticking to the plan’ is important. Often, the sooner someone accepts that they need to pull back for a short time, the faster they recover and can get back to training 👍🏼

I personally would wait to get the results from your medical professional. From there they can discuss the severity of your situation and the specifics around your expected recovery time and course of antibiotics. You’ll be able to ask questions from there. They may say it’s okay to train, they may advise against it. The most important thing is that you recover so you can get back to training and doing what you love.
